Answer:

34,700

Explanation:

34,678

3 is in the ten thousands place

4 is in the thousands place

6 is in the hundreds place

7 is in the tens place

8 is in the ones place

When rounding, you look at the next number to the right. If anything that ranges from 5–9 is rounded up, and anything that ranges from 1–4 is rounded down.

So, 6 is next to 7, which is in the 5–9 range, which means it is rounded up.

400, 500, 600, 700

As you can see, the nearest hundred is 700

Our answer would be 34,700

Hope this helps!
